Hi Bruce,

It also just occurred to me that the IDV supports a command line argument that 
allows
you to change the files or url (e.g., opendap url) that a data source in a 
bundle
uses.

You run the idv with:
idv somebundle.xidv -setfiles "id of the data source" "semi-colon delimited 
list of files or urls"

The id can be defined when you initially create the somebundle.xidv bundle 
through the
data source properties dialog (right-click or double click on the data source 
in the 
field selector)

There is documentation about this in the Idv Scripting Language (ISL) pages:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/isl/DataAndDisplays.html#setfiles

The above command line arguments can also be used in the jnlp file.
